Hey all,
Jus figured I'd show you some improvements & additions since I have been enjoying my GMC.
I finally made some progress on 3 major issues.
-I had a serious driveline vibration @70 mph and up. I went through various combinations of used OEM & a new pinion yoke & 3 different u-joints, but we are finally highway friendly.
-The next was an AGR steering box that wasnt right out of the gate. I tried doing everything up to a completely factory adjustment (input & output both). I was excited as they claimed it was a 14:1 straight ratio with a firmer servo valve. It had a dead spot in the middle of about 3/4" side to side.
The solution: Redhead Steering gear 15:1 ratio. Perfect 1/4"-3/8" freeplay in the middle. Bolted on, bled, done.
-The last was ignition gremlins. I'm disappointed in my lack of attention to detail in my original assembly. It seems a combination of things added up to some dead parts.
But one of the fixes leads us to our favorite things.......pics!
New coil bracket 3/8" aluminum carved on my co-workers garage 3-axis CNC. He also built my throttle return bracket.
